It should be, perhaps even better be.

For those who may not get it, start by trying to think of it the way FSU fans see things. They are surrounded by SEC fans who can count on facing at least 5 league foes every year that it is exciting for them to play. Most years they have 6 or even 7 of 8 that they as fans can't wait to get too, based on history and the other teams' fan bases.

FSU fans see Wake and BC every year and are bored or worse. Syracuse will fall into that category for FSU fans because it is a private school with a small football fan base. The more that FSU fans see the same small fan base school, year after year, the more bored they get.

This plan, which we can call 3+5+5, relieves that boredom. Wake is not annual, nor are BC and Syracuse. They all rotate on and off FSU's schedule. FSU fans no longer have to wait a decade to face GT (the closest ACC school to Tallahassee) and VT and UNC. Each FSU recruiting class would face all those schools twice in their 4 years.

That plan will help each of our coaching staffs recruit the entire ACC area the best possible. Under the current system, Cuse will go to Atlanta once per decade. As GA is the state that produces the 4th most talent in the country, Cuse is best served playing GT fairly often to maximize ability to recruit GA.
